we were talking about michelle obama. is she a natural? is she just so comfortable now on the stage that she could handle that kind of moment? >> i think she is exactly who she is, that what you saw was completely genuine. the first lady has always been like that. she and the president both have this really long history of community organizing, working with families, church groups, people of faith, students, and that's exactly what you saw last night was the first lady really speaking from the heart, talking about her husband, talking about the incredible people she's met along the way, the work that she and dr. biden have done with the troops. it got me teary-eyed. i think the first lady got inspired because of the stories she was relating. >> the stakes for bill clinton coming out tonight, you went through the campaign, you know just how bitter it was against the clintons. this is a coming together where bill clinton is really going to be validating barack obama on welfare reform and some of the other issues. >> absolutely. and we are so

while republicans dragged a chair onstage to conjure up an invisible president obama, michelle obama critiqued governor romney without mentioning his name, drawing sharp contrasts with her husband and creating a profile in negatives. >> barack's success isn't about how much money you make. it's about the difference you make in people's lives. we learned about honesty and integrity, that the truth matters, that you don't take shortcuts or play by your own set of rules. he's the same man who started his career by turning down high-paying jobs. the issues that come across a president's desk are always the hard ones. the problems where no amount of data or numbers will get you to the right answer. i have seen first-hand that being president doesn't change who you are. no, it reveals who you are. >> joining us now from charlotte, north carolina, is margaret carlson of bloomberg news. margaret, great to see you. before i get to you, i want to send a question over to our folks on set. senator bradley, someone who has in fact run for president, i want to ask you the question of michelle obam
